Shopify

Monitor your Shopify store for new orders, low inventory, failed payments, and abandoned carts. Never miss a sale or fulfillment deadline.

Quick Setup

  1. Log in to your Shopify Admin
  2. Go to SettingsApps and sales channelsDevelop apps
  3. Click Create an app → name it "Phyllax"
  4. Under Configuration, select the Admin API scopes you need: read_orders, read_products, read_inventory, read_customers
  5. Click Install app → copy the Admin API access token (starts with shpat_)
  6. In Phyllax → Integrations → Shopify → Connect → enter your shop domain and paste the token

Required Credentials

FieldWhere to find it
Shop DomainYour Shopify store URL, e.g. yourstore.myshopify.com
Admin API Access TokenShopify Admin → Settings → Apps → Develop apps → Your app → Admin API access token (shpat_...)

Use the myshopify.com domain

Enter the .myshopify.com domain, not your custom domain. Even if your store uses www.yourstore.com, the API uses yourstore.myshopify.com.

Notification Actions

When Shopify finds something important, the notification card shows:

  • Fulfill order — open the order in Shopify Admin to process fulfillment
  • Restock — open the product to update inventory
  • Contact customer — AI drafts a customer email you can edit before sending
  • Retry charge — retry a failed payment
  • Refund — initiate a refund for the order

All action chips that involve writing (Contact customer, etc.) open the AI draft panel — AI generates a suggested response that you can edit before posting.

Troubleshooting

"401 Unauthorized" error

Your Admin API access token may be invalid. In Shopify Admin → Settings → Apps → your app, check that the app is still installed and the token is correct.

Missing order data

Make sure your app has the read_orders scope. If you added scopes after initial setup, you need to reinstall the app to apply the new permissions.

"Shop not found" error

Double-check the shop domain format. It should be yourstore.myshopify.com (without https:// or trailing slash).
